The second round saw Benfica’s victory over Vila-sana Coop d’Ivars 3-1, redeeming the semi-final lost seven months ago on the same floor. There were two key moments in a balanced match, the decisive one being the break at the end of the first half and the 3-1 goal scored by Santos which thus also reached 3 points in group A together with Fraga. The Italians of Roller Matera won at home against the Germans Remscheid 7-2 with a rather large victory, gained in the last minutes of the match (3 goals for Tarrida and Lapolla). Seven goals were also scored by Martinelia Manlleu and Generali HC Palau Plegamans. Manlleu scores an important victory at the home of French Coutras 7-0, where Castellvi scored three goals. Ivan Sanz’s team also recorded a 7-0 victory against Astro Stuart HC Massama’s Portuguese team, also in this case gained in the second half, under the blows of the multiple European champions Florenza and Busquets (doubles for each).
In two weeks, January 27, 2024, we will arrive at the halfway point of the Group Stage where the most fascinating matches will be Manlleu-Coruna and Vila Sana-Fraga.
In the top-scorers list, Laura Igualada of Telecable Gijon is leading with 5 goals and in the second place Aina Florenza (Generali Palau Plegamans) With 4 goals.
